Original Toronto Star caption: Heart and Excitement prostrated dozens of youngsters as about 2,000 Bay City Rollers fans swarmed outside CHUM radio station on Yonge St. yesterday trying to catch a glimpse of their idols. This teeny bopper got scant attention during the melee. The British rock group never made it inside building for an interview. Police could not keep young mob from blocking door. It was orderly at last night's concert.
